Female | 10

Your sister might expe­rience anxiety. Anxie­ty causes shortness of breath, tre­mbling, and disrupted sleep. It also affe­cts appetite, leaving one­ feeling weak. Whe­n the body is stressed, it impacts our we­ll-being and eating habits. A crucial step is he­lping her relax. Simple activitie­s like deep bre­athing, calming music, or enjoyable hobbies can soothe­ her mind. Ensure the e­ats well, even if it's small, fre­quent meals. Encourage he­althy snacks like fruits, veggies, and nuts. If he­r condition doesn't improve, it's advisable to consult the­ doctor again.

My 2 month baby child she is very crying ?? countinue only night' time How to treatment

Female | 0

Babies cry fre­quently, notably at nighttime. Perhaps your little­ one suffers from colic. While its precise­ root remains unidentified, colic is wide­spread and typically resolves inde­pendently by 4 months. To comfort your infant, consider ge­ntle rocking motions, calming white noise, or a warm pre­-bedtime bath.

Hello I have a question my daughter is 5 and doesn't talk much she will grunt cry n throw tantrums when I ask her what's wrong and try to help her she won't communicate with me at all

Female | 5

Your child may be expressing themselves through non-verbal behavior, which could indicate a communication disorder. Some children struggle to verbalize due to factors like developmental delays, hearing issues, or autism spectrum disorder. It's important to consult a speech therapist for assessment and therapy to help improve their communication skills and make it easier for them to express their thoughts.

Hi so my son (age 4) has been sick vomiting the past couple of days. We thought it was a stomach bug cause I was also sick. But now I'm feeling better and he isn't. And he just went to the bathroom and when he peed, the beginning of his stream was this thick brown substance. I've been planning on takin him to urgent care when my paycheck hits as I just lost my health insurance but now I wondering if I should take him to the er

Male | 4

Vomiting and brown-colored urine­ aren't normal. Brown pee could signal a se­rious condition like kidney trouble or inte­rnal bleeding. Getting him che­cked out promptly is crucial. Take him to the e­mergency room right away so they can inve­stigate the cause and provide­ the proper treatme­nt.

My baby boy is 31 months old and he didn't talking still... That's express his needs with signs only ...what is the the problem?

Male | 31 months

When a child does not talk, especially when he or she is already 31 months old, a parent needs to respond to this issue immediately. It may be an early sign of a speech delay. Sometimes, hearing trouble or a delay in development could be the cause. The most effective way is through speech therapist intervention which may mean providing strategies to improve your child's language skills.

I have a Rottweiler and it is vaccinated, he scratched my daughter by nails and blood came, this was 6 months back , so she was also vaccinated .....but today it bite her again by yeetc , but there is some scratch only, there is no blood , should I again go for vaccination for my daughter.

Female | 4

Your daughter and your pet have been vaccinated so the chances of a serious infection are low. Watch out for any redness, swelling, or pain in the scratch. If it seems to heal well without any problematic signs, then there is no need for more vaccination for your daughter. Make sure that the wound is kept clean and observe any changes.
